Rest in Peace Jim. Long time since I was part of the Hughes family but you always kept me in . I have come to you so many times asking for help and you always came through. You Sir were the best Pa to my Cooper. Thank You for that, I am forever grateful. Also thank you for dancing your way into Gramma Susans life. You gave my son a Grandmother that he would not have had. I am sure you gave Cooper the best parts of you. (Love and words.) (to me I know you as what my Coop calls you) I will miss You. Thank You Pa.
